A report is current that the
Union Pacific Company proposes
to build a narrow gauge line of
railroad from Ketchum to Smoky
district, the rails and rolling stock
of the Utah e. Northern road to be
brought into requisition for such
purpose. The gauge of the U. &
n. road is to be changed to stand
ard this season, and the old mate
rial and stock is still in good con-
dition. The report cannot be
traced to any authentic source, but
such a move on the part of the
company would not be surprising.
If the prospects of Smoky will
Justify the extension of railroad ia
cilities in that direction the Union
Pacific Company will not be slow
to take advantage of the situation.
The route from Ketchum over the
divide is so much shorter and more
accessible than from any other
point on the river that should a
road be decided upon it will surely
be adopted,

0. B. Batten, of the law firm OF
Hyndman & 1atten, returned on
Thursday from Boise City, where
he has been engaged in the U. S.
Court with the timber suits against
Frank Gooding and the p. NJ. q S.
Company. Mr.. Batten interposed
a demurrer to the complaint in be-
half of Mr.. Gooding, which was
overruled. A motion was made to
quash the service of summons SO
far as the P. NJ. Il S. Company was
concerned, on the ground of its lille
gality. His motion was sustained
and service will have to be made
anew. Defendant Gooding has
been allowed until July 1st to file
his answer to the complaint. An
active move is now being made by
Major Hyndman before the Depart
ment of the Interior, at Washing
ton, to secure some modification OF
the present regulations as will per-
init of the cutting of black pine
ard kindred growths Of timber less
than eight inches in diameter. This
affects not only this particular Sec
ton, but the entire territory.

At the meeting of the members OF
the American Pathological Society
Mr.. L. Moody gave his method
with the Goblin moth in his large
orchard. He sprayed the trees
with solution of London purple,
in ratio of one-half pound to eighty
gallons of water, by means of a
iorce-pump and barrel on wagon.
He had a machine so arranged that
the spokes of the wheel did the
pumping as the wagon progressed.
One man could manage it and
could sprinkle 1000 trees day, at
cost of not more than One-hali
a cent per tree. BY this easy and
inexpensive method he produced
abundance of apples without the
mark OF worm upon them.
Mr.. Partridge of Michigan had an
orchard of 1900 apple trees. He
adopted much the same plan as
that OF Mr. Moody, and with equal
success. He used about 100 gal
Ions of water in which was dis
solved one-half pound of London
purple, for spraying each 100 trees.
SO it seems to lie settled and proved
that fruit growers can head off tie

fruit if they Will make tie neces-
fary effort,

The organization of the proposed
Committee of One Hundred in the
District of Columbia is believed by
democrats there to have a deeper
significance than the advancement
of certain local improvements, and
is quoted by leading democrat
from one Of the territories as an
evidence of the general feeling of
the necessity of self-protection that
is prevailing not only in the Dis
trict of Columbia, but in every ter
ritory in the United States. This
democrat, who has been a delegate
in congress from his territory, said :
1t may seem queer that the peo-
pie of the territories should find it
necessary to organize to protect
themselves against the Federal gov
eminent, yet that is just what we
find ourselves compelled to do.
Our territories have grown SO rap
idly, our business interests have
reached such a magnitude, that it
is of vital interest to us that our
business affairs should be in the
hands of men whose knowledge OF
local affairs is absolute, and who
cannot be misled by schemers. We
have not time to whine and say
that we have been betrayed by the
administration. for we readily rec
ognize that the enunciations of
party platforms in national con-
ventions relative to territorial Of
fees going to local talent was but
a sop thrown to our people to Sc
cure their endorsement, and it
would have required more than
good faith on the part of President
Cleveland to have carried out such
an idea, but the time has arrived
when we can no longer allow our
selves to be ignored and our offices
dealt out in payment of party SER
vices TO people whose highest idea
of territorial life is deerskin leg
gings, revolvers, profanity, WOODEN
shirts, whisky, poker, and swag-
ger, and we must begin to look oul
for ourselves. 1t was talked over
several times among the delegates
in congress and leading territorial
people here last winter, and it was
unanimously decided that III both
the national conventions the terri
tories would appear in an organized
force and demand not alone prom

CUSTER COUNTY ITEMS.
Especial Correspondence

l
The country in the vicinity OF
Challis is now as beautiful as a
summers picture. The vernal
season has fairly started, the trees
and bushes are donning the bright
emerald livery of early spring; the
fields are green with growing crops,
while at the peaceful hour of sun
set the early frog salutes his mate
across the creek with his goodbye,
sweetheart, goodbye" and with a
parting kerchunk he glides into
his bed of bull-rushes. But eggs
continue firm at 80 cents dozen
all the same, and fresh butter is
but memory of other days.
There is every indication of a
lively mining and mercantile bust
ness during the season in and
about Bayhorse and Clayton. The
business and travelling public are
awaiting anxiously for the opening
of the road to Ketchum, and bust
ness houses at the terminal town
will do large and far more lucra-
tive trade this year in Custer coun-
ty, if they make any kind of an eff
fort to secure it.
A. p. Challis went up the Salmon
river last week from Challis to
Stanley Basin with his horses.
Grass is good as far up as. Valley
creek, and deer are moving in large
bands from Squaw creek and East
Fork to Robinson Bar and above.
There is still considerable snow
along the Yankee Fork and salmon
trout are slow to put in an appear
ance. This makes sad the heart
of the "Salmon Eater"
The Salmon river rifle club, ten
pieces, is debating the propriety of
moving in a body to Ketchum on
the Fourth of July, and on that
glorious day vanquish the Wood
River club or any other Alturas
county organization willing to take
a desperate chance i'll a friendly
contest. Distance one, two and
three hundred yards, open sights,
oii-hand or upright shoulder fire.
Consider this due notice and get to
practicing The Ketchum shooters
can grease up their guns and get
ready for the fray.
Messrs. Marshall, Perry, Albert,
Challis, Cooper, O'Dell, Muloch
and Camp, with other Stanley Ba
sin placer miners, are putting their
sluices in order for a brisk sum-
mer's work. There will be more
water than usual this season.
The mines on the Bonanza side
of the mountains, so far as they are
being developed, are looking well.
The Washington (Morrison &
Pearson) on Jordan creek. is pro-
ducing $1,000 ore from the shaft
in the lower tunnel. This gives
the pay chute depth of nearly 200
feet from apex of ledge, and is be-
low the water level.
The Dickens crew is putting the
old mine in good shape for the easy
production of ore. The hosting
works will be up as early as the
machinery can be got up from Salt
Lake city.
Angus Cameron, Joe Miller and
Tom Dusenberry started for Sheep
Mountain few days ago, going by
Loon creek. They have several
good locations there from which
they shipped ore 10 the Clayton
and Bayhorse smelters last year.
There are now several parties at
work in that country. The dis
lance from Bonanza to the mines
is about forty miles.
